The Trusted Saskatoon businesses become Partners with a contract, and they become part of a community. In a community we all have our parts to play to ensure the directory maintains the standards and high level of integrity we demand. To ensure our partners are upholding these guarantees on a daily basis, we have a mystery shop program. We reach out to normal everyday people who we know are in the market for local products and services, and we ask them to add our Trusted Partners to their list. We then send them a report so they can share their experience.

Expert Advice
The Trusted Saskatoon team finds Heather to be very knowledgeable, friendly and responsive. Heather installed new roller blinds in the Trusted office recently and we were very happy with the install, service, price, and look of them. Not only does the colour go well with the space they are also very functional. Heather asks all the right questions to make sure that the window coverings she recommends fit your needs, whether it is your home or business.

Heather shares a tip on Window Coverings – Budget and Timelines – What to expect:
Building or buying a home this year?
Looking at timelines – your consultation will take 30-75 minutes (give or take). At your consultation, we can decide on your window coverings and take accurate measurements of the windows in your home. Your quote will be back to you within 24-48 hours of your consultation. For most custom window coverings, plantation shutters being the exception, the shipping time from the manufacturer is between 2-3 weeks. Plantation shutters will take 4-10 weeks, depending on the size and scale of the project. Most other products (wood or faux wood blinds, cellular or honeycomb shades, roller and solar shades, Roman shades, sheers and draperies, etc.) can be delivered within 3 weeks of placing the order. Give yourself some extra time so that everything comes together smoothly. We will schedule an installation date once your product arrives at Made in the Shade.
Budget! This is something we all want to know! Made in the Shade Blinds offers various choices from several manufacturers – Hunter Douglas, Graber, Horizons, Maxxmar, Shade-O-Matic and Norman Shutters – and there is a bit of variance in the price ranges. The size of your windows also factors your costs…the larger the window, the more pricey the window covering (of course). One of the most cost-effective window covering products would be faux-wood blinds. Fabrics and natural woven woods generally require more investment, as do plantation shutters. Pleated, roller and solar shades tend to fall more into the budget-conscious category, and cellulars (depending upon the brand) fall pretty much in the middle of the road. I think you would be surprised when you do comparison shopping!
